The shoes look exactly like the pictures, they are beautiful and exactly what I was looking for. When I looked at them before ordering, they were listed as men's shoes, so I ordered the size I would normally wear in men's running shoes. (8th). After shipping, they were listed as WOMEN'S shoes in my confirmation email. And of course when they arrived they were women's shoes 8. Unfortunately I had to send them back as I wear size 9 women's shoes and they are out of stock in that size in the color I wanted. :(
